As discussed at recent broker information sessions, we are expanding the commission program for Group Medicare Advantage. In 2013, we began paying $12.50 PMPM (per member per month) for new Medicare Advantage (MA) contracts from competitors. We will continue with this component of the program. In addition, in 2014 we will pay $12.50 for contracts on newly established MA contracts from:

Medicare age-ins (newly established MA Plan)

Commercial carve-out plans (newly established MA Plan)

Medicare Supplemental plans (newly established MA Plan)

Even better, we will now write “Medicare Only” group contracts for large and small group business. Even if we don’t have the under 65 segment, we will still write, and pay commission on, Medicare-only groups!
